Hmm. I would rather see us abstract it... maybe use external scripts for
wget and netselect, called "findmirror" and "download" or something. Then
users can just drop in whatever they like. In this example, findmirror could
be left empty, and download could call prozilla w/ the settings the user
wants. That way we dont have to make prozilla a default (as wget is needed,
but prozilla could be considered bloat), but we allow the option of removing
both netselect and wget if people want.

Providing you add a sorcery menu that allow using all proz options (limit
threads, bw, ftpsearch...) it may be a good idea I guess.

Bye,
